The TSM rating ensures compatibility with Traxxas Stability Management equipped models, giving you confidence that your investment will work seamlessly with modern Traxxas 2WD electric platforms.
Key Features
- RXT Black Chrome Wheels — The distinctive RXT wheel design combines aggressive styling with practical performance. Black chrome finishing not only looks stunning on any RC car, but the wheel construction provides the structural integrity needed to handle the demands of serious bashing and track use.
- Talon EXT Tyres — These competition-grade tyres are engineered for maximum grip and predictable handling characteristics. The Talon EXT compound and tread pattern deliver consistent performance across a wide range of surfaces, from dirt and clay to grass and asphalt, making them one of the most versatile tyre options available for 2WD electric RC cars.
- Foam Inserts Included — Pre-installed foam inserts are critical for proper tyre performance. These foam elements absorb landing impacts from jumps, maintain consistent tyre shape during cornering, and help the tyre conform to uneven terrain for improved grip. This eliminates guesswork and ensures optimal performance straight from the box.
- Pre-Glued and Assembled — Traxxas has completed all assembly and gluing work to exacting standards. This saves you hours of preparation time and ensures professional-quality wheel construction. No waiting for glue to cure, no risk of improper installation — just unpack and drive.
- 2WD Electric Rear Application — Specifically designed for the rear of 2WD electric RC vehicles, these wheels are engineered to handle the unique weight distribution and power delivery characteristics of 2WD electric platforms. This specialised fitment ensures they deliver maximum performance in their intended application.
- TSM Rated Compatibility — Full compatibility with Traxxas Stability Management systems means you get the best of both worlds: advanced electronic stability features working in harmony with these premium wheels and tyres.
- Pair Pack (2 Wheels) — This package includes two complete assembled wheels, providing everything needed for one axle position. Perfect as a replacement set or for building complete wheel kits with matching front specifications.
Technical Performance
These Traxxas Wheels & Tyres represent the pinnacle of 2WD electric RC component engineering. The 2.8-inch size is the standard for modern 2WD electric buggies and stadium trucks, offering the ideal balance between ground clearance, turning radius, and top speed potential. The RXT wheel construction uses high-quality materials engineered to withstand the stresses of high-performance driving, whether you're pushing your RC car to its limits at the track or enjoying weekend bashing sessions. The Talon EXT tyres use a specialised rubber compound developed through extensive testing with professional RC competitors, ensuring that grip levels remain consistent whether you're driving in cool morning conditions or warming up your tyres during a race run. The included foam inserts are matched precisely to the Talon EXT tyre profile, ensuring perfect fitment and optimal performance without any rattling or movement inside the tyre. For 2WD electric RC cars running modern brushless motors on 3S or 4S LiPo batteries, these wheels and tyres are engineered to handle the acceleration, deceleration and cornering forces you'll generate. The pre-glued construction means Traxxas has applied the correct amount of adhesive using professional techniques — not too much, which could cause tyre damage during use, and not too little, which could result in tyre slip. This factory assembly ensures you get consistent, reliable performance immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What 2WD electric RC car models are these wheels compatible with? — The Traxxas Wheels & Tyres TRX6774X are specifically designed for 2WD electric Traxxas models. The 2.8-inch size fits popular models including the Slash 2WD, Bandit and other compatible 2WD electric platforms. Check your vehicle's manual or contact our team to confirm fitment with your specific model, as different generations of the same vehicle model may have different wheel mounting specifications.
- Are these tyres suitable for competitive track racing? — Yes. The Talon EXT tyres are competition-grade components used by serious RC racers and professionals. They deliver excellent grip on prepared track surfaces and maintain consistent performance across multiple runs. However, tyre performance depends on track conditions, temperature, and driving technique — what works best for your specific local track may require testing against other tyre options.
- Why do these wheels come pre-glued when other tyre packages don't? — Pre-glued wheels save you significant preparation time and eliminate the most common cause of tyre failures: improper glue application. Professional RC drivers and Traxxas know that perfect glue application is critical, so they complete this step at the factory using precise techniques. This also means your wheels are ready to use immediately without waiting for adhesive to cure overnight.
- Can I use these wheels and tyres on a 4WD vehicle instead of 2WD? — These are specifically engineered for 2WD electric applications where they are fitted to the rear axle. The sizing and performance characteristics are optimised for 2WD vehicles. For 4WD vehicles, you would need wheels and tyres designed specifically for front and rear fitment on 4WD platforms, as 4WD vehicles distribute forces differently and may require different tyre compounds and sizes.
- How long do Talon EXT tyres typically last before needing replacement? — This depends entirely on driving intensity, track surface, and maintenance. Competitive racers running on prepared clay tracks may wear through a set in a few hours of driving. Weekend bashers on varied terrain might get 20-30 hours of use before visible wear requires replacement. Regular inspection of tyre tread depth and compound wear is recommended.
- What battery does my 2WD electric RC car need to use these wheels? — This depends on your specific vehicle model. Most modern 2WD electric Traxxas vehicles are designed for 2S or 3S LiPo batteries, with some models capable of handling 4S LiPo for maximum performance. Battery and charger are sold separately — check your vehicle manual for the recommended battery specifications to ensure you have appropriate power for your setup.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — These wheels and tyres are high-quality competition components, so while beginners can certainly use them, they represent a more advanced setup than basic hobby-grade options. Beginners should ensure their vehicle and driving style can take advantage of the performance these premium tyres offer. For complete beginners new to RC cars, we recommend consulting our team about starter setups and appropriate tyre choices for learning.
